Small group setting

By limiting Hero Up to a small mastermind you’ll be part of a small group working to help and inspire one another. You’re no longer a spectator; you’re a player in the game.

Learn Through Action

There isn’t enough I can say about the Hero Up Summit. The weekend was life changing. My view of myself and others did a complete 180.

Every week after the summit I’ve found myself being happier, more confident, more in love with my partner, and constantly feeling like I’m walking on a cloud.

Each speaker that came to the summit had so much value to share. The challenge on the beach taught me a lot about myself and how I work with others. The only negative I can say about the Summit is that it was not long enough! Thank you Jim and the Hero Up Team! 

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I bring?Dress code is casual. You’ll be working out, doing stuff at the beach so shorts, t-shirts and a bathing suit are good calls. It gets cooler at night so bring something warm as well.

What food will you be providing?We’ll have an in-house chef preparing all of our meals and snacks. All food is organic and prepared fresh daily. If you have any dietary restrictions let us know.

Can I bring my family?Yes! The Hero was designed to ‘hack your vacation’ so please bring them as we’ll have special events just for them.

What’s the venue?The Hero Up Summit will taking place in a luxury location by the Pacific Ocean in San Diego. We’re keeping it a surprise but you’ll learn more about the location as the event gets closer.
